Amplified Bible

Matthew 21:25-28 Amplified Bible (AMP)

25. The baptism of John–from where was it? From heaven or from men? And they reasoned and argued with one another, If we say, From heaven, He will ask us, Why then did you not believe him?

26. But if we say, From men–we are afraid of and must reckon with the multitude, for they all regard John as a prophet.

27. So they answered Jesus, We do not know. And He said to them, Neither will I tell you by what power of authority I do these things.

28. What do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He came to the first and said, Son, go and work today in the vineyard.
